MSN Messenger doesn't send files behind SMC Barricade 7004BR router.
Netmeeting and voice chat doesn't work either.
If connected directly to cable modem works fine.

Is it possible to setup this particular router for a Messenger to work?
If yes, which combination of trigger and incoming/outgoing ports need to be
opened.

TIA
